The policy of the West, aimed at maintaining its dominance, makes the initiative of Russian President Vladimir Putin to create a Greater Eurasian Partnership increasingly relevant, stated Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Pankin addressing the “New Era – New Paths” World Forum.
“The collective West does not abandon attempts to preserve its exclusivity and to restrain the development of new large centers of global growth. This leads to disorganization of international relations, increased disproportion of the world economy, and a deepening of the civilizational split,” Pankin emphasized.
“In these conditions, on the Eurasian continent, a unifying agenda is becoming increasingly needed, to promote constructive interaction and emergence of new forms of cooperation between large regional interstate associations. This makes the initiative of Russian President Vladimir Putin to create a Greater Eurasian Partnership even more relevant,” the Russian Deputy Foreign Minister pointed out.
In turn, President of the International Organization of Eurasian Cooperation Dmitry Stasyulis noted that the forum plans to pay special attention to this initiative of the Russian president. “Today all participants of the World Forum can make their proposals regarding the formation of the Greater Eurasian Partnership,” Stasyulis added.
